What Working In Parkstone Actually Involves
Parkstone sits inside the Poole Basin, where Eocene sands, clays and gravels run in bands rather than as one uniform layer. A dig-out on an ordinary Parkstone garden can turn up something sandy in one corner and clayey a few metres over, especially where a previous owner has brought in topsoil on top of the original ground. That is exactly why falls and drainage get set from what a trial hole shows, not from what the road outside suggests. Streets here run from established interwar semis to newer infill, so what a driveway or patio sits on gets checked before the quote, not after.
The Full Range, Built For Parkstone's Ground
Everything we do in Parkstone, grouped so you can go straight to what you need.
Driveways
Block Paving DrivewaysIn Parkstone this starts with what the sub-base actually needs, because garden soil here can run sandy in one corner and clayey in the next.
Tarmac & Asphalt DrivewaysA hard-wearing option for Parkstone's mix of established semis and newer infill, laid to move water off the surface rather than let it sit.
Concrete DrivewaysThe right call where an existing Parkstone drive has failed and needs a proper rebuild from the sub-base up, not a resurface over the same fault.
Gravel Driveways
Driveway Repairs & Resurfacing

What Our Customers Say
Reviews from customers across Bournemouth, Poole and Dorset, covering the driveway, patio and groundworks jobs we take on.
Grace Sibley
Jacc and his team did a full patio renovation for us inclusive of sorting out some significant drainage problems. Jacc and his team have been professional through out and provided a high quality service even through some significantly challenging weather. I cannot fault them at all. Jacc and Jordan went above and beyond for us and despite it being 37 degrees carried on grafting to get us a usable patio before our sons 1st birthday. The work was efficient, they kept the place tidy with waste removal being organised within 48 hours of it being produced I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Four Ground for your upcoming landscape/ground works project.
Asa Parker
I'm very happy with the work Jacc and this team have done. They removed the old driveway and previous concrete pads, before levelling and laying a new larger reinforced concrete slab and block paving driveway. Jacc was very helpful throughout.
Chris Lynch
We used Jacc and his team to lay the foundations and over site for a single story extension. After getting plenty of quotes he was very competitive and his enthusiasm and communication was exceptional. Our plan is to have Jacc back to complete our patio area and ground drainage - he's trustworthy, reliable and has a fantastic attitude - something that we've realised is really hard to come by in the building trade. Thanks so much Jacc and team!
A.G Reeks
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Friendly & Honest Excellent service from start to finish. The drainage work was explained clearly, priced fairly, and completed efficiently. The lads were polite, hardworking, and respectful of the property. It's refreshing to deal with a company you can trust. Would definitely use again.
Rachel
We are so pleased with all the work we have had done - our back garden was a total mess, but the guys completely transformed it with a brilliant new concrete area and some lovely planters. They even sorted out and tidied our front drive with a temporary fix, which has given the whole house a massive face-lift. The whole team were so friendly and down-to-earth. Big shout-out to Jacc as well, who was always around for a chat whenever we had any questions. Honestly couldn't recommend them enough if you need a landscaping company for gardens or driveways.

After being let down at the last minute by another landscaper, Jacc was recommended to me. I messaged and received a prompt reply. Jacc visited to give a quote and start date. He arrived when expected to start on a new patio, whilst he was working, I asked for a quote for new concrete fence posts and panels, again I was happy with the quote and it could be done at the same time, result... Its now all completed, I'm impressed with the new patio and fence, jacc was professional and takes pride in his work, his easy to get on with and very approachable. Highly recommended, and thanks again Jacc 👍
The Questions Everyone Asks Before Booking
Answered plainly, before you have to ask.
Will it still be level in a few years?
Falls and levels are set from a proper sub-base, not guessed on the day. That is the layer that decides whether it stays flat.
Will the site be left in a state?
The site is kept tidy throughout and swept down at the end of each day, not just on the last one.
Will you turn up when you say you will?
The same team quotes the job, does the work and comes back for the walk-round. No handing off between contractors.
Parkstone Driveways and Groundworks FAQs
Local questions about driveways, patios and groundworks in Parkstone.
Do you cover Parkstone?
Yes. We're based in Bournemouth and are in Parkstone regularly, working across driveways, patios, groundworks and garden transformations.
What's the ground like for a new driveway or patio in Parkstone?
It varies more than it looks from the road. Gardens here can run sandy in one spot and clayey a few metres over, which is why we check with a trial hole before pricing the sub-base.
Will you need council permission for a new driveway?
It depends on the drainage and the area being covered, and is worth checking before work starts. We talk you through what applies at the visit.
How long will a standard driveway take?
Most standard driveways are finished inside a week, confirmed at the quote once we've seen the access and the ground.
Do you handle the mess and the muck away?
Yes. Muck away and spoil removal are part of the job, and the site is kept tidy and swept down throughout.
Are you on Checkatrade and Google?
Yes. We are an approved Checkatrade member and hold Google Guaranteed status. Behind that are over 15 years in groundworks and landscaping and the trade cards to go with it: CSCS, Street Works, SSSTS and NVQ Level 2.
